The history of using fired brick in architecture is more than 4 thousand years old. New wave interest in this artificial stone swept over designers in the 20th century, when old industrial building began to turn into apartments and offices. And soon the brick "moved" as a decor and in new panel buildings.
A primitive clay rectangle is fraught with countless possibilities. He is able to transform an ordinary apartment into a medieval castle, a hunting or country house, a factory loft or a modern dwelling with a twist.
Depending on the goal different types bricks are used in the decoration of various interior elements.
Industrial revolution in the interior
In what style is decorative brick decoration used? In the interior of lofts - industrial premises that have become dwellings - brick surfaces dominate. If the wall is originally made of brick, it is enough to clean it from dirt and dust. mortars, wipe the seams and varnish, otherwise the surface will crumble. For the sake of stylistically correct "shabby", here and there you can apply rough texture plaster or a thin layer of paint with rough strokes.
Where to get decorative brick in the interior modern apartments? Since inhabited factories are now rare, more often it is necessary to create lofts from ordinary apartments... In this case, the new brickwork is deliberately aged: acid solutions, sandpaper, a hammer are used, acrylic paints and other improvised means.
Individual areas can be "smoked" with a blowtorch. The "burnt" corners of the walls under the ceiling look especially impressive: this is how the room is overgrown with a legend about a fire that once raged here.
Additional elements of loft style in the interior of a modern apartment
In addition to decorative brickwork, the spirit of industrial aesthetics is supported by the old ceiling beams, unfinished windows, wooden floor. Pictures occupy a special place in the decor. They can simply be placed on the floor, leaning against the wall, or hung in the usual way... The more modern the content of the paintings (abstractionism, impressionism and pop art are welcome), the better their union with archaic brick looks.

Gothic Middle Ages in a single apartment
To create the atmosphere of a medieval castle, we need the same aged brick, only the traces of "fire" should be discarded. The brick wall in the interior, painted in dark gray... A layer of paint is applied thickly so that it fills the seams unevenly.
In addition to the walls, columns and semi-columns, pointed arches are trimmed with bricks. This finish is suitable for any room, from the kitchen to the bedroom. In high rooms (dining room or kitchen), vaulted ceiling can be tiled with brick tiles. This will create the illusion of an old wine cellar. By the way, it is easy to arrange cells for storing bottles in the walls.
The Gothic style is a combination of rough brick with luxurious furniture, decorated with elaborate carvings and artistic forging. Huge chandeliers and massive candelabra will enhance the effect. Ancestor portraits and heavy dark curtains will complete the creation of a medieval fairy tale.
Country estate or hunting lodge?
Brick - typical construction material for country house, it also acts as a finishing material. The aged surface of the walls, canvases with hunting scenes and elk antlers above the fireplace "shifted" the room into the past by a couple of centuries. New brick and crisp, contrasting seams give a more modern look. In any case, the indispensable companions of brick walls in the interior are wooden window frames, doors, floor and furniture. A brick-faced fireplace is also indispensable.
Brick with Provencal accent
Another option for a country house is a dwelling in the style of rural Provence. Here the brick, painted in white color... To give naturalness and the spirit of antiquity, it can be aged, edges rounded from time to time, cracked surface are allowed.
As a rule, one wall is trimmed indoors with decorative bricks - for example, in the kitchen near the dining area or as an apron. The brick can be the wall behind the head of the bed or behind the sofa in the living room. Light brick does not focus on itself, but brings a certain rhythm with its texture. Suitable details for white rural brick - small still lifes and floor vases with flowers.
Modern brick design
Despite its age, brick is also used in modern interiors. Minimalism or Scandinavian style is fine with brickwork on accent walls or niches. You can brick a part of the wall, leaving "torn" edges to highlight the area of \u200b\u200bthe bar or hallway. In the latter case, the brick symbolizes the transition from street space to home space, against its background it is appropriate to place shoes.
In minimalism, as a rule, red or brown bricks are chosen, which contrasts with white, gray and black surfaces. The Scandinavian style stops on the walls in light colors: white, blue, pastel yellow. Bricks are also used to cover bar counters, kitchen islands, semi-columns and partitions, pools, bathrooms, sinks, showers. This gives the furniture solidity and geometric clarity.

Increasingly, designers are returning to glass blocks rectangular... Interesting semi-partitions are made of colored glass bricks, which serve as screens in studio apartments.
Brick or "brick": we decide on the material
How to create decorative brickwork? The easiest and most economical option is to process the "native" brick wall. It can be left with a natural color, artificially aged the surface or painted. But if the builders cheated you with such a wall, you can fold it from facing brick or brick tiles.
Facing bricks are similar to ordinary ones, but lighter and with thin walls, due to which they "eat up" less volume. Today you can find options for the most different shades, matt or glazed, aged or new.
Brick tiles ("veneers") are even lighter, so they are well suited for finishing thin drywall walls. Tiles are laid, like facing bricks, on a flat surface, fixed with a special glue for stone, and the seams are then trowelled. By the way, a similar tile made of baked clay 2.5 cm thick was used even under Ivan the Terrible and was called plinth.
The glass bricks mentioned above are also the most different colors, and sometimes contains inclusions in the form of plants or shells. Cladding with such material is often combined with backlighting.
A simple version of imitation of brickwork in the interior is “brick-like” wallpaper. It can be paintable wallpaper that repeats the texture, or colored wallpaper with a brick pattern. This option is successfully used to decorate wall niches.
Brick in the interior is not only a successful design find, but also practical solution... Durable, water resistant and temperature tolerant, it feels great in any room. Bathroom or kitchen, cellar, living room or bedroom - everywhere the brick is in its place, creates a unique atmosphere and speaks of the impeccable taste of the owners of the home.

The reason bricks are increasingly used to decorate walls in living room interiors is understandable: this technique helps to create a relaxed, slightly grungy environment with a special charm. In addition, brick is a very effective material, practical and durable, and its use in the living room space is fashion trend over the past few years.
Judging by the increasing popularity of brickwork in interior decoration and a variety of positive feedback about her as the most stylish way decorating walls, you can be sure that a room with a similar wall surface is a present and future trend in design.
In the 90s of the twentieth century, bricking the walls in a room was considered bad manners, and generally unacceptable for residential interiors. Further, over time, this material began to be used in the design of public institutions with a thematic interior.
By the way, instead of a simple brick, they used fake diamond in the form of thin and narrow tiles, often of sand, gray or terracotta color, which covered the walls not completely, but only its protruding parts (pseudo columns, openings, portals). But the tribute to fashion soon passed, and the impression of such a design remained unsteady and unclear.
Today, the most influential designers and architects use brickwork in their projects, while emphasizing that the wall decoration should look natural, therefore, the selected section of the wall is decorated completely from floor to ceiling. It seems as if the brick surface was discovered during renovation works, and decided to preserve its beautiful natural texture in the interior.
Rustication
Rustic or rustic is called cladding external walls buildings or some areas on it with rectangular stones tightly fitted one to the other, the front side of which is left uncouth or roughly hewn. Interestingly, in an urban setting Ancient Rome rustic had practical significance: effectively insulated the first floors of the building from moisture and noise.
Rusting should be used in the interior design of the living room, especially if the wall adjacent to the neighboring apartment allows all the noise from the outside to pass through. Besides, rude simple masonry looks very colorful and can be a great contrast for furniture with a graceful silhouette.
Flip wall
This way of using brickwork looks original, making you wonder for a moment whether you are indoors or outdoors outside. It is recommended to use brick for wall cladding with windows, laying out the tiles in such a way as to imitate external design buildings: emphasize openings, protruding parts and niches.

Rustication
Emphasized monumentality
If there are static partitions in the living room, their surface can be covered with masonry of chipped bricks or thin stone tiles with a pronounced texture.
In the interior of a spacious living room, this design looks very unusual, and, moreover, helps to diversify the minimalist design, focusing on an ordinary, initially boring wall.

Attention: portal
If there is a real fireplace in the living room, its electric analogue or a pseudo-portal, it is worthwhile to be creative in decorating it, because the heart of the room cannot be ignored.
Brick or masonry is the most organic addition hearth, even if it has only a decorative function. So, in the furnace of a pseudo fireplace decorated with brick tiles, you can put candles or lamps with lampshades - the light will emphasize the relief and create fancy shadows on the wall surface.

Background with character
Smooth brickworkused to decorate one, but big wall, - this is what is needed for various objects and objects with a pronounced texture to appear more effectively against its background.
So, beautiful, and incredibly stylish mirrors look simple geometric shape with or without frames on a wall faced with rough brick. The original designer floor lamps will also stand out catchy, desk lamp or sconces, as well as modern painting in the technique of volumetric acrylic.

Pure and white
Snow-white or cream-colored brickwork is so versatile that it can organically fit into many living room interior design styles, from classics to modernity. Within the walls clothed in white brick, you can create an atmosphere of light ease, dreamy boho, spiritual Provence or trendy loftbut the result will always be positive.

Eclectic
An important advantage of brickwork is its ability to adapt to the already formed image of the room and the materials used in its arrangement. Therefore, in the living room where it is installed wooden furniture and the floor, forged or stucco decorative elements, textiles made of cotton or velvet - you can safely use brick as a decoration for a site, or the surface of one of the walls completely.
Industrial plaque
No interior designed in the Loft style is complete without the use of brickwork, which is considered one of its notable features. But in order to create a clearly industrial character in the room, brick cladding should look as if she existed here for a long time, and saw the first owners of the apartment.
In short, choose a brick with an "antique" effect, - a heterogeneous color, with chips and cracks. When laying the material, you do not need to worry about the fact that the mortar for the joints lays down unevenly, in some places accumulating in clots, because this is the beauty of industrial-style masonry.

Exquisitely
Another, in our opinion, an incredibly effective and very aesthetic way of using brickwork in the interior of the living room. The surface of the brick wall should be putty so that the relief of the material is not felt, but the unique pattern of the masonry is preserved. After that, you can tint the wall in a pastel neutral shade: powdery, ivory, light gray. This is a great option for decorating "women" living rooms, for example, in vintage style.

Topical staining
Brickwork can look quite modern and even more charismatic if the wall is painted in saturated color: dark blue, graphite, burgundy. The technique of painting brick walls also requires attention, and a rather serious approach, because brick is a natural porous material that must first be properly prepared - pickled, putty, primed, and then start painting in several layers in order to get the desired color or shade.

Brick in the interior: finishing methods
Brickwork can be used for finishing in a variety of ways:
- Fragment. The masonry forms a small part of the wall, emphasizing the solidity of the walls of the house. This technique is used, for example, in the Scandinavian style.
- Accent. Brickwork is used to highlight the part of the wall to which they want to draw special attention... This can be the location of the TV panel, a part of the wall behind the head of the bed, a fireplace area, or something else.
In the photo, the fireplace area is highlighted with brickwork. Project: "Interior of a 2-room apartment in beige tones"
- Wall. An entire brick wall in an interior can also look very decorative. Usually, in this way, the part of the room that bears the main semantic load is distinguished. In the living room, this can be a wall near which the sofa is located, in the bedroom - a wall behind the head of the bed, in the kitchen - a wall near the dining area.

The main disadvantage of brick as a finishing material is its considerable weight and volume. In small rooms, the brick will "eat" a significant amount, which is undesirable. In such situations, you can use materials that mimic brickwork. A brick-like wall in the interior of a small room will create the necessary impression without reducing its area.
Brick color in interior design
The surface of the brickwork, as a rule, is processed in order to remove excessive porosity, facilitate cleaning and also harmoniously fit it into the style of the room. If it is necessary to leave natural masonry, it is covered with transparent compounds. But more often brick walls are painted, choosing the most suitable color in each case. Nothing stands in the way of making the brickwork green, purple or pink, but the traditional "brick" colors are most commonly used.

White brick wall can be combined in the same room with "traditional" masonry.
Gray brick in the interior
Gray, like white, is considered neutral. It creates a calm backdrop for displaying furniture and decorative design elements. Depending on the saturation, gray can play a different role in a room.
Light gray will expand the space and slightly dim the brightness; it is appropriate to paint brickwork in rooms that are too brightly lit in this color. Dark gray will add chamberness and intimacy, create a soothing atmosphere, although it will visually conceal the volume.
As a rule, "red" refers to the shades of ordinary bricks made from clay. Although nothing prevents to paint the masonry red, if required design idea... Red brick walls are appropriate for almost all styles, including Gothic and Classics. As a rule, they immediately attract attention to themselves and become the main decorative element interior.

Brick in the interior of the room: in which rooms is it appropriate
Elements of brickwork can be entered into a room for any purpose, from the entrance area to the room in the bathroom or toilet. The main thing is to choose an option that will perfectly match the furniture and the rest of the decoration.
Hallway
